Titanium Bars

[Mikey]

hey me and my friend know i guy who builds titatiunium for airplane and he sid he would make scooter bars!!!would u guys buy them? remeber titatnium is the lightest stronget metal

 

[alexiorio]

Titanium is a little over half the weight of chromoly, however it isn't as strong.
The bars would still be stronger than aluminum.

 

[Graham Todd]

They would be so expensive

 

[codyferner]

mike make me some my dimensions are 23 x 17 lol

 

[Steezeman]

I would never run those, ever.

 

[scooterperu]

if you can get them for free, cool =]
make sure they have gussets or they'll bend, then try to heat threat them to get some extra strengh. good luck

 

[mat]

its not as strong as people think, yeah its extremely strong FOR ITS WEIGHT, but thats all.

also, ITS INSANELY EXPENSIVE. if you can get it free, sick. send me some.

its really not an ideal material for scooters, at least as of now.

 

[scootin24/7]

dude the bars would be like $300- $400 bars but there super strong, stronger than chromoly, and alot of metals trust me

 

[JonnyJonDogg]

yeh man it would cost so much

 

[Steezeman]

I've never once seen a titanium bike part that was stronger than a chromoly one.

 

[scootin24/7]

well titanium is stronger, no dought, and maybe the chromoly ones arnt hollow

titanium is not as sturdy as chromoly.

 

[Rob.]

Just no.
Even if it's lighter. (WEIGHT FREAKS.) it's not better than chromoly..

 

[Jon Reyes]

i would wanna try them

 

[seankane]

if you get titanium bars they WILL bend, just so you know

 

[Shane ryan]

i was gonna buy titanuim metal for bars and it was like 500 bucks

Anyone who thinks that titanium is stronger than chromoly and/or titanium is lighter than aluminium, is an idiot.

Aluminium's density: 2700 kg per square meter
Titatium's density: 4500 kg per sq meter
Steel alloys: 7800 kg per sq meter (yes, chromoly is a steel alloy)

Titanium's tensile strength (63,000 psi) is almost equal to SOME steel alloys,
but chromoly 4130 tops it anyway having tensile strength of 85,000-110,000 psi.

Read Wikipedia.
